Fan speed slower than what it should be

Recently I decided to update my graphics card on the cheap so I decided to go with an rx 480 8gb I bought it off of ebay started it up everything was fine except the fan speed of the gpu is very slow around 800rpm too slow so i tried to increase its speed through radeon settings that didn't work so I cleaned it out and tried again still too slow , so I put a bit of load on it and the card got really hot really quick just wondering what the problem could be as there isnt any noticeable fan noise coming from the card itself

Yes, you can set custom fan curves. Just go to the settings and you’ll have a tab with fan curves.
